Optimization #4943
closedBug #4941: alerts: 5.0.8/6.0.4 count noalert sigs towards built-in alert limit
alerts: use alert queing in DetectEngineThreadCtx

Description
Currently each alert is written directly to Packet::alerts
during rule evaluation. Then at the end of the detection run for a packet, PacketAlertFinalize
removes entries again, when applying thresholding, suppression and noalert
. This leads to the issue in #4941 but is often also not very efficient esp when there are multiple rules to remove.
The idea of this ticket is to use a per DetectEngineThreadCtx
specific queue of some sort to store the alert "candidates" and have PacketAlertFinalize
only write the final alerts to the Packet structure.
